Convicts are the roaches of the fish world - They breed like rabbits and roaches

They breed like there's no tomorrow. I had a breeding pair and gave them away very quickly.

Also, they dig....so if you have plants in your tank, be prepared for them to be uprooted

Hi again
What is the best food to feed Convicts.

Normal Cichlid pellets will do just fine.

Great and easy fish to keep, but can be quite aggressive towards others.
